[VMware vSphere] help creating PowerShell scripts
Many engineers working with VMware Virtual Infrastructure / vSphere products are
faced with the need to use PowerShell scripts. quite a lot has been written
about the PowerCLI library itself, which allows you to manage a virtual infrastructure built on VMware products
.
The main websites for PowerCLI for me personally are the following sites:
communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/vsphere/automationtools/windows_toolkit
blogs.vmware.com/vipowershell
www.virtu-al.net/category/powercli
often need to find out with the help of which particular PowerCLI cmdlets an action is performed.
The Onyx project, a proxy server between vSphere Client and vCenter, can help with this.
allowing you to record actions performed in the vSphere Client GUI
in the form of a PowerCLI script.
this utility gives the output is not the most optimal script, but is useful in cases
where you need to quickly find a way to automate any actions using the PowerCLI
